With the Long Night averted we all needed an episode to decompress,
surviving characters included. The episode opens with the aftermath of the
battle as the remaining characters light funeral pyres, hail the victorious
dead, and prepare their depleted forces for one last fight.
Jaime and Brienne play a drinking game, Daenerys recognizes Gendry’s
usefulness, Tormund challenges basically anyone to a drinking contest, Dany
demands Jon keep his true name secret, Sansa forswears herself in front of
the Heart Tree, Arya reunites with the Hound, Tyrion defends Dany’s
leadership qualities, the Northern armies honour their promises to Dany,
Varys hatches a desperate plot, Cersei is offered a final chance at peace,
and Dany is punished for her clemency.
